Camp Bucko

Camp BUCKO (Burn Camp for Kids in Ontario), founded in 1995, is a free residential camp for young burn survivors in Ontario. Initially administered by the Burn Units at four Ontario hospitals, Camp BUCKO became a registered charity in 2000. We are supported entirely by donations from businesses, service clubs, fundraisers, fire services as well as personal and memorial contributions. Our dedicated six-person Board of Directors, all volunteers, ensures that every child aged 7-17 with a qualifying burn injury can experience the joy and healing of our camp without any cost. We create a safe, nurturing environment where kids can be themselves and find community.
